The good news is that we are winning in court. The bad news is that we have to win every case. Trump only needs to subvert one election to break democracy.

Listen, when I said the tent was big enough for all of us, this is not what the fuck I meant. Thanks for the publicity or whatever, but Neo-nazis need not apply.

What a psycho 🍊 💩 is Trump said. “If Abdul and the Democrats win, they will open the floodgates and invite hordes of jihadists to our shores, creating a nightmare of violence and terror until you cannot even have a Christmas.”

House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.

Everyone keeps asking me how I’m feeling about early voting so far. I’m feeling like nobody *actually* knows anything, and this is the most important midterm of our lives. I’d rather be us than them, but we can’t get comfortable. We can’t get complacent. Go vote like we’re down 3%.

NEW: DOJ just admitted in court that their lawsuit against California is not about outcome determinative issues, it's simply saying that a single non-citizen voting causes the government irreparable harm. That's bananapants.
